ANAHEIM A motorcyclist died Monday afternoon after colliding with a vehicle on Kraemer Boulevard near the 91 freeway, police said.

The crash happened about 12:30 p.m. when the motorcyclist was traveling south on Kraemer, just north of Frontera Street, and collided with a Jeep Cherokee exiting the eastbound 91 freeway, Anaheim police Sgt. Bob Dunn said.

The motorcyclist hit the center divider and was thrown from the motorcycle, Dunn said. The motorcyclist then was hit by a vehicle traveling north and landed in the north lanes of Kraemer Boulevard.

Paramedics took the motorcyclist to a hospital, where he died about two hours later. Authorities are not releasing his name until his family is notified of the death.

The driver of the Jeep remained at the scene. He was not injured, Dunn said.

The crash forced the temporary closure of the eastbound 91 off-ramp for southbound Kraemer. Kraemer was also closed for several hours north from Frontera and south from La Palma.
